Couples Counseling
Couples Therapy
Couples Counseling and Relationship Therapy can take on many formats. At Oasis Counseling Center, we offer several forms of couples counseling, all designed to promote intimacy, strengthen connections, and increase communication.
Each counselor has their own techniques so be sure to look at our counselors' bio page to learn more about what each of them has to offer.
Prepare/Enrich program has been in use for over 30 years and is backed by research conducted in many countries around the world. The program is structured and focuses on helping couples to understand their strengths and their growth areas. Prepare/Enrich starts with each member of a couple taking an on-line survey and then meeting with the counselor to discuss the survey results. At that point, the counselor begins working with the couple by utilizing structured exercises designed to improve the couple's communication and ability to manage conflict, learn new relationship skills, and gain insight and understanding into each partner's personality traits.
Prepare/Enrich can be used for:
- pre-marital counseling
- rejuvenating your marriage or committed relationship
- reducing your risk of divorce or separation
- preparing yourself for a major life change - such as birth of a child, adoption of a child, or caring for an aging parent
Currently Stacy Sampson is our only counselor who of which is trained to facilitate the Prepare/Enrich program.
Oasis Counseling Center offers several options for clients interested in Prepare/Enrich.
Pre-marital counseling - the couple attends four 1 and 1/2 hour sessions - this allows pre-marital couples to complete the requirements set by the state of Georgia for a pre-marital counseling certificate to reduce their marriage license fees. This allows newly married couples to start their lives on a solid foundation.
Marital rejuvenation - couple may attend as few as two sessions or more depending on their needs.
Conflicted couples - couples experiencing more difficulties in their marriage find it beneficial to attend four to six sessions.
